Hi Bulli
Where in Rotherham are you, I lived in Wickersley all my life until about 12 years ago. I'm heading back up next weekend as its my bro's 40th (he's in Whiston). Mum & dad live on Bawtry road between Wickersley & Brecks (across from Listers' castle), so keep a look out for Macie next w/e (grey 06 defender 90 s/w).

yep, thats right :) dont think we've seen you again since though... only waved because i noticed the spots on the front ;) i've given up waving to most rangie and disco drivers... they usually just look at you as if to say -

"whats this idiot waving for? its not like hes got the same *car* as me... hes in a land rover, and im in a discovery...."

you know the type. "its not a land rover though, its a discovery!"

Yea i know the type but with me its wave and be waved at. but i only find Off road prep ones are the ones to wave back. and most new rangr rover owners are just snobs with a few nice exceptions :wink:

Sorry for the delay, been a busy weekend  :oops:

Yes the pub meet is not far, and it coming up soon.....

We meet at the Castlewood pub, up the A38 just the other side of the M1 (junction 28), about 300 yds the other side, there will be a crowd of us there on Wednesday (5th July) from about 8ish.

It would be good to meet you if your free  :wink:
